Psychiatric counseling has many of the same approaches as a Psychologist. However, when medications are needed in the treatment of a psychological disorder, a consultation with a Psychiatrist may be required. Medications, such as antidepressants, mood stabilizers, or neuroleptics, may be critical for treatment success when patients have co-occurring mental disorders, such as depression, anxiety disorder, bipolar disorder, or psychosis. You may be helped to find a Psychiatrist outside of this office that can help with medication selection and any psychiatric concerns.
